Hello Ale,
The simple answer is that you MUST NOT trust lib and modules that you

You need to check and test each new part as you use them so that you can
be sure that they meet your needs.
You do not want to cancel the errors, they are there
Component management is always a problem, and the question really is, is
the parts in eeschema the right place to do this?
There are probably as many answers to this as there are people who want

eeschema is a generic schematic package,
One is absolute the other is resettable.
